The Peninsula Beverly Hills, Los Angeles
More photosThe Peninsula Beverly Hills is an exclusive, luxury retreat designed to feel like a private Renaissance-style residence rather than a traditional hotel. Opened on August 8, 1991, at the highly auspicious time of 8:08 am, it has long been a fixture of Southern Californian elegance. Its interiors, recently refreshed by Hirsch Bedner Associates, blend French-inspired aesthetics with a breezy, residential California feel.
A standout feature is the hotel’s “Peninsula Time” policy, which offers guests the rare flexibility of 24-hour check-in and check-out, ensuring that a stay fits perfectly into their personal schedule. The property is also home to a refined rooftop oasis, The Roof Garden, which offers poolside dining and private cabanas that have become a signature of the hotel’s elevated experience.
Located at the intersection of Wilshire and South Santa Monica Boulevards, the hotel is perfectly positioned for those wanting to experience the city’s glamour. You are just a short walk from the world-famous shopping on Rodeo Drive and the manicured paths of Beverly Gardens Park.
Beyond the immediate neighborhood, the hotel serves as a convenient gateway to broader Los Angeles culture. Major attractions like the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures are easily accessible by car, while the scenic hiking trails of the Hollywood Hills are only a short drive away. It is an ideal base for balancing high-end shopping with deep dives into LA’s vibrant arts and entertainment scene.

Other Los Angeles hotels
Downtown Proper Hotel, Los Angeles
The Downtown L.A. Proper Hotel is a masterclass in adaptive reuse, transforming a historic 1926 Renaissance Revival building into a modern design destination. Originally constructed as a private men's club called the Commercial Club of Southern California, the building hosted influential figures like Cecil B. DeMille. Today, the property honors its past by incorporating original features, such as the historic indoor swimming pool and a former racquetball court, into its unique suite layouts.
CN Traveler“A true feast for the senses, this playful, design-driven property calls on the creative energy of DLTA’s past, present, and future with enough visual and cultural interest to make it a self-contained staycation, or a great home base for L.A. exploration.”
The Line Hotel, Los Angeles
The Line Hotel is a vibrant centerpiece of Los Angeles’ Koreatown, housed in a striking mid-century building originally constructed in 1964. Once known as the Wilshire Plaza Hotel, this architectural gem underwent a brilliant transformation led by designer Sean Knibb, who embraced the building's Brutalist concrete bones while infusing it with a modern, artistic sensibility that reflects the neighborhood's multicultural energy.
New York Times + 1 more“The Line Hotel retains some of the stripped-concrete walls and industrial-chic aesthetic. This new hotel is shaping up to be the “it” location for night owls and adventurous omnivores. Its biggest accomplishment is introducing visitors to the gems of little-known Koreatown.”
Hotel Indigo Downtown, Los Angeles
The Hotel Indigo Los Angeles Downtown is a striking urban retreat designed by the architecture firm Gensler. Located within the modern Metropolis development, it serves as a creative anchor that pays homage to the city’s past. Its design concept is deeply rooted in the "pre-Hollywood" entertainment era of the late 1800s and early 1900s, blending stories of underground speakeasies, the local La Fiesta de las Flores parade, and the birth of the movie industry into its aesthetic.
Lonely Planet“This freshly minted, 350-room property celebrates Downtown’s colorful backstory: wagon-shaped lobby lights pay tribute to the Fiesta de Las Flores, blown-up paparazzi shots around the elevators nod to vaudeville and early movie days.”
Mama Shelter Hotel, Los Angeles
Mama Shelter Los Angeles, located in the heart of Hollywood, brought the brand’s signature "urban refuge" concept to the United States for the first time. Founded by the Trigano family—the same duo behind the iconic Club Med—the hotel is designed to be a playful, inclusive sanctuary. The interiors, overseen by the Mama Design Studio, are famous for their quirky, eclectic style, featuring everything from graffiti-laden ceilings and chalkboard art to oversized, comfortable sofas that encourage socializing.
New York Times + 3 more“For a nontraditional Los Angeles hotel, you really can’t go wrong with Mama Shelter. The friendly staff was a huge plus, as its infectious enthusiasm set a welcoming tone throughout the property.”
